proxy used example
I spotted this today.... a combination of rewite and proxy to use another machine stuck on a local port as a backend server. Hope this adds more light.



Code:
<virtual host 192.168.0.3>
servername www.frontend.com
RewriteEngine On
RewriteOptions 'inherit'
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://192.168.0.4:8001/$1 [proxy]
</virtual host>

will send requests to the backend on port 8001
backend config looks like:


Code:
Listen 8001
<virtual host 192.168.0.4:8001>
DocumentRoot .........
......
</virtual host>


I typed that out from O'Reilly's Apache (the horse book) B&P. Laurie. ISBN 0-596-00203-3
